Augustine
Augustine
Augustine, his twin brother Augustus, and older brother Gideon, were left as orphans when their father died in 2009 and their mother died of typhoid fever in 2010. They were then placed in the care of an impoverished aunt who, though she tried, could not provide for their basic needs. She asked the Rafiki Foundation for help, and the boys arrived at the Rafiki Village Ghana in 2010. Augustine's favorite verses are Proverbs 3:5-6 because they help him trust the Lord. He has learned from the Rafiki Bible Study about the importance of standing firm in his faith.
